The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched by Etro in 2004, Anice is an aromatic spicy fragrance that captures the essence of Italian elegance with its complex blend of spices and florals. Star anise takes center stage, bringing a warm and inviting aroma that's complemented by bergamot and jasmine, creating a fresh yet rich bouquet. The powdery base notes of musk and vanilla add depth, making Anice a fragrance that feels both familiar and sophisticated.

How to wear it

Apply Anice to pulse points for a warm embrace that lasts throughout the day. The spicy notes are most pronounced in the first hour but gradually soften into a musky base that lingers close to skin.
